3:03 pm
a day before he was killed. kitty live was charged and extension by ukrainian court for russia's use of band chemical weapons in ukraine. he'd also been sanctioned by britain for using chemical weapons on the battlefield. whilst russian says analysts constantine, i got to tell us more about the russian general as well. uh carrie loves audio is probably the cd. i'm trying to remember anyone who is most any other than him among the russian offices that died during this russian aggression against the graeme. he was lift, tenant general, uh, 53 years of age. uh, basically grew through the oldest stages of minutes or career and he was quite an important person in terms of his position as head of the nuclear, biological and chemical protection of defense of forces. oh russia. he is definitely part of the leadership of the defense ministry minister leadership of
3:04 pm
the general style. and she became quite famous or rather infamous. if you look from the graham, uh, you know, through the training lens, food constantly, cuz usually you grain in his public briefings of using chemical weapons of endangering of the situation. for example, a new or nuclear power plant in the u cranium held a part of the russian course cobblers. so he was also a media of seger and his a liquidation by the granny is of course, an old dextrous act in near what seems to be like an apartment love where he lived in the uh, north east of moscow. its not a very prestigious area, but still um, what the rest of the social media is now showing. i live top uh the photos from moscow. it seems that uh, the uh, this, this operation was carried out with the uh,
3:05 pm
in mind of booby trapped uh scrooge on which was parked near the entrance to the apartment. look, uh, we see this quite disturbing. i would say images of the 2 bodies of the general and his assistant, uh and uh, damage to black to your nearby, and the russians up, there's already confirmed that this is the call which the general use for consenting. he was an important man. he was famous and as you describe it, this was an all day for us act. so how much of a blow is this full president lot of miss who said, well look on the a, a rush is not a democracy, then i'm going to be the problem in 3 questions about uh, about the security off top officials uh, in, in russia. so in this respect, prison pool is quite safe. uh, but of course, this is a signal that ukrainian,
3:06 pm
uh, the grand leadership, the grant in, uh, secret service is all sending up to 12 persons. nobody is safe. oh, those who do something and gets to grain on, you know, across scares. and of course, this is a powerful message. this is most cool. uh and i do not remember, you know, to be trapped vehicles blown up. it must go for quite a few years. so i do think indeed this is a signal uh to uh, those 4 pressures that are involved, the will uh receive dw use rusher if hes on the list, constantine get constant. thank you so much for that. the district course in helsinki has just dealt in the kremlin below that couldn't mean more than 34000000 years worth of russian assets in finland, a sold to benefit ukraine. they're all concerns that moscow will retaliate the officials in finland say that years of building national resilience to russia means
3:07 pm
it is ready for anything to toby's, terry shoals, reports just marked a 107 years of independence from russia. the more aggressively moscow behaves on its side of the 1300 kilometers border. the more assertive, similar, because a recent example, helsinki judges ordered the seizure of russian government owned properties, worth 34000000 euros. they are honoring and international legal judgment. the ballad, moscow guilty of stealing billions of heroes worth of assets from ukraine's national gas company, natural gas, in the 2014 illegal antics ation of crimea. the company has identified russian owned properties like these in several countries, asking local courts to seize them. but so far, only finland has done it. i don't know whether in some countries they are thinking
3:08 pm
about wait a minute, we have a state on the opposing side and each the rest the state should be i should be not . you know, render an an award. unsure of how russia may react. the attorneys who filed the case for natural gas and inland won't appear on camera as a security precaution, but they don't tied the reason. they took the case for free to use our skills, our profession, to help ukraine defense minister on the hacking and notes this decision taking money out of moscow's pockets, helps finland to. we have to deal the measure. what we can do kind of 5 foot down the russian war economy for his part hacked and then has blocked new sales of property to russians and said a near total band is coming soon to better prevent malign actors access to critical infrastructure and supply chains. now we have seen that there's a of the several cases where suspicious actions behind
3:09 pm
these equities and pins are famous for keeping cool heads when making decisions against which moscow may retaliate and for maintaining their preparedness to a very high level. or in this case, a low level tends know that some 90 percent of the population can be housed in these underground bunkers. if something bad happens up there. most of finland's, underground shelters, used for leisure during piece time to even sustain a nuclear attack. adding to officials confidence the fundamental lesson is if you've taken care of your own society, it's resilience. it's easier to be somewhat more proactive up early at the independence day ceremony with her grandfather, even 11 year old elona offers a reflection on this less than what they use. then all new people have been working hard to build the candidates. she says are, and that's why it's a great country. now he had a y w correspondent,
3:10 pm
terry schultz filed about for portion she joins me now from brussels. good, see you, terry. tell us how damaging this quote decision could be for the kremlin, as well as it's the 1st one. i think the biggest impact it could have is that it sets a precedent. i mean 34000000 euros isn't going to really put a dent in in kremlin coffers, but it's other countries, courts start to follow what finland is done. definitely, it could force moscow to pay off this debt to ukraine's nap the gas, which is $5000000000.00 euros. and the lawyers like the ones that i interviewed there for my peace have been contacted in countries where russia owns a lot of property and asked to start seizing them. and so far as i, as i said, only finland has done so. but if other countries do that is certainly could put a dent in, in uh, in rushes um, sort of economic resilience in these countries. if it doesn't feel that it's
3:11 pm
properties are going to be protected as they have been up till now except in finland, finland is now understand looking at further restricting the purchase of prophecy by russians is the any criticism of this from inside of finland? i mean, maybe by those, you know, who wants to sell that real estate to the highest bidder. yes, and in fact, there is so much russian ownership and feeling that this has been an issue for some time. that a lot of people with, with money in russia come in and buy 2nd homes in finland and they have been able in the past to purchase them in areas that the finish defense minister feels could be a threat to national security. close to finish a military basis, for example, or, or uh, energy infrastructure. and so that is the 1st thing that they want to stop. and they just said last week that this bill will come before parliament in january. that would be almost a total block on citizens from outside the u. n. in this case,
3:12 pm
mostly russians to buy property in those sensitive locations. and that's because the finished defense minister told me that would prevent people from getting close to these infrastructures physically. and they believe that that would be a lot a lot more security for the country than they have now. and what is russia going to do uh, to, to react to retaliates? well, of course, they always threatened as with any moves that the countries take against against russian assets. and, and russia said, in this case, when the court tickets decision, it said that it would expect that decision to be reversed, or else the entire country would be held responsible, you know, defense. as i mentioned today, just very stoic, we go about their business, the court said, hey, we looked at this, it looks like a valid legal case to us and they didn't take politics into account. that's not how russia operates. and of course, the defenders government will not intervene in a court decision. so this decision is,
3:13 pm
is not going to be reversed. at the same time, russian does have the right in court to argue against the seizures and is fully expected to do so. so would it be right to say that all the countries are generally more hesitant than finland about seizing russian assets? when we're talking about these property cedar seizures, yes, finland has been the only one to seize them in payment of a debt that moscow owes. so this is certainly setting a precedent and no one has followed it when we talk about seizing russian assets in general, there has been a lot of movement on the european seeing. of course, they have made decisions now to use windfall profits from russia's central bank assets to help you crane. and i expect that we'll see more moving on that there's a big push to use that money. the, the interest from russian bank accounts to help you crane. so in terms of seizing russian assets, i think that there's a lot of hope that ukraine will be getting money from this more in the future than
3:14 pm
they do now. terry, thank you so much for that. let's see, don't use terry schultz reporting from brussel fascinating stuff. let's take a look now. some of the other stories making headlines around the world and ministry officials and ukraine in the us save at north korean troops have been killed in combat. they were fighting against ukrainian forces in russia's coast regions, the 1st report of the casualties. since north korea sent thousands of soldiers to help russia's war efforts. ukraine launched a cross border incursion into coast in august. for take your opinion, regulate to say they're investigating why the tech talk breeches. the blogs, digital services acts, the pro centers on allegations, russia use the social media platform to sway the results of romania is presidential election last month, which the countries talk court lisa and know the pro russia for rights candidates. colleen to jessica one. the 1st round to the democratic republic of congo who has
3:15 pm
filed a criminal complaints against the tech joint apple in fronts and belgium accusing it of using so called conflicts and minerals and its products. concord condo is a major source of such minerals, but some of its mines have been taken over by our groups. apple says it does not directly, so it's priming primary minerals. several airlines of suspended flights to the south pacific island nation is that it will also off to a powerful as quick hit the the magnitude $7.00 quake struck around 1st he columbus is off the coast, designing watts whose main island cctv footage shows the moment the quake shook the capital. port villa. rescue is all looking for survivors on the collapse buildings . one person has been confirmed dead to rest of was on the hospital have been badly damaged. assume nami warning was cooled off. less than 2 hours off to the trim is
3:16 pm
local residents is a the damage to the watchers pool viola. this is the bill of on building one of the chinese goals and ctf. this collapse. i would put the rescue team in that now are us giving that? trying to get some people out? wait for a walk on the road. there's definitely some people in the hopefully still a lot. we're trying to get some machinery out at the moment. the injured people have been arriving at the hospital at some reports of casualties. and building housing, civil embassies, including those at the us. brisson from any zealand was significantly damaged. the quakes triggered several land slides near and international shipping terminal. much of underwater who's communication networks have been knocked out with the full extent of the damage, still imaging of the southern african nation of mozambique.
3:17 pm
now where residents are cleaning out damage from cycling. chito the storm claimed at least the c 5, excuse me, 34 lives. the drone video shows the extent of the damage with flossing, homes and vegetation. cloth rooms and a number of schools were destroyed as well. the stool made line for on sunday, off to pushing through the south, west in indian ocean in the early part of the regions cycling season to see if the libby this and all corresponded to. so kamala is following the story for us from your highness bug bureau. to the what more can you tell us about the situation in those? i'm beat right now. this is quite a diverse stating situation for the most i'm because the as adjusted the about 50 percent or better for people fit at the put that have been that died a bit about 300 people,
3:18 pm
particularly in jobs. but the destruction of homes is the very and that's something that is popular for them begin. this is expected that to about 23000 homes have been destroyed and yulusef putting back number 55000 homes. we know that the most. i'm because a place where people use their poets to fish in the sea just for, for, for, for this a 5 on about 170. as a of them a destroyed in terms of the numbers or thought it is estimates that about a 175000 people have been affected and us affecting that in that number. these up of 90000 children affect it. so that's quite devastating. roads have been destroyed, the network has been destroyed in those areas in some areas and electricity has been also effective. meaning some people are not even accessible. it is a bit difficult for the to, to get to those areas to provide the help that is needed. this was quite a device that the moment for the people of mozambique that we can see. of course, from the,
3:19 pm
the pictures that we're seeing that the devastation is extreme. dislike loan has a region in mozambique that is especially vulnerable. presumably, people are guessing everything they need, i mean how much help is getting through this is very difficult now. are we, we know that to the regions that have been the problem is that they've been hit hard . is cop within god don't and and i'm pulling up pregnancies or with this pregnancy they've been experiencing and was there the laptop? is that a fight through the government? so people had already been displaced before this cycle console is difficult for though it is to access them. and of course, with the oil it's destroyed and they'll go some networks to rich people and also affect it in those areas. it is difficult for thought it is even to us, i 10 who needs help and where they need to be solved, even if the help is there for it to get to them. but of course, organizations like do substantial thing. they need to go funding and to try and assist as much numbers as possible. so the access is a problem because of the infrastructure that has been destroyed. network to reach
3:20 pm
people that are them and into that of course. and the problem is, or for a couple of the god to or right to be, they've been, was this between the government and the rebels that, that in the top. so a lot of people were to staying in the bushes, having no access to schools heavy, more access to health services. so this situation is made it even worse to say if i can just pick up the point that you made about the political unrest. i mean, we know that violent protests followed mos on beaks, disputed election just last month. is all of this turmoil affecting the rescue efforts now? is it making the situation worse just briefly if you could or what can pull it at the tragedy for the most. i'm because since the election, so file that well thought it is a thing about 100 people have died and divided is about to have insured. we know that when these violence people are not in the homes, people, i'm not, i'm not feel secure. so they're always on the run and with this coming,
3:21 pm
you're not game. of course it is made to things west for the people about the the volume is as also displaced to them and do this is also added to that to displacement and wanting. they've been given even people trying to type of the most likely not to go there. so you can tell the situation is a bit kowalcik for the most of the consent to the kamala reporting from janice. but thank you so much for that update. thank you. and here are a few more stories making the news today and see wailing out to this pull. watson has been released from detention off to denmark refuse to japanese extradition request. watson had been detained in greenland, which has an autonomous danish territory on a japanese arrest. for and is accused of damaging a waving ships in the until the tech in 2010 are illegal. and in syria, the head of the islamist rebels, the top of bushel allah said has said old rebel factions will be disbanded. revel
